Ok..Im not a noob at web design at all, but have only been using css for about..2-3 months (i havent used em b4 cause of pure laziness), but i need sum help...and am very confused as to why this wont work...i am using pabox (from phparena) for my shoutbox on high-arts.net and in the stylesheet, i have:
'
BODY {
scrollbar-arrow-color: #ffffff;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color: FFFFFF;
scrollbar-face-color: #000000;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #ffffff;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #000000;
scrollbar-track-color: #c0c0c0;
background: #000000;
font-family: Tahoma, Verdana;
font-size: 10px;
color: #ffffff;
}
'
which is SUPPOSED to style scrollbars, yet, as u can tell...the scroll bar didnt style (i've seen other pabox tagboard with styled scrollbars, so i know there is a way to do it) NOW, i thought it mite just be the code in pabox.php, like maybe it was a phpinclude that was puttin the actual tagger content there, but noooo its all there. For sum reason, pabox.php does not want its scrollbar to be styled, heres the code for the stylesheet:
'<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title>paBox 2.0</title>
<style type="text/css" media="all">@import "./styles/<?php echo($conf['css']); ?>";</style>
<script language="JavaScript" src=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"./pabox.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>'
Can any1 help me out? it would be greatly appreciated.Scrollbar color codes are a Microsoft proprietary, and will not work in any browser except Internet Explorer version 6. Since these codes only work in 1 of many browsers, they are not standard and, hence, are not valid.
Other than that, there is only one syntax error than I am seeing in that code. The third scrollbar statement is missing it hash indicator (#).Thanks. i fixed the '#' and it still doesnt work. but like i said...i've seen other people have custom scrollbar colors on their pabox's. Im able to style the buttons, input fields, etc. but not the scrollbars...if any1 else knows why this is happening...or how to style it..please let me know... thx
b.t.w(by the way) i know i could just swtich my tagger...but i i've tried other ones and i like this one best..i would just ignore it..but the grey scrollbar looks out of place on my sitepost a link to your style-sheet or post it's contents (given it's not too large). I'll have a look. Although, I do not recommend using color-codes because your code will not validate.Originally posted by Cintax
the grey scrollbar looks out of place on my site
What if I'm on a Mac and my scrollbar is blue? Or if I'm on XP with a different themeset and it's red? It's a chrome object -- it's part of the browser, and the user's computer -- and it shouldn't be changed. It's like changing someone's wallpaper, screensaver, or screen resolution (although you can't do those). I don't want the color of my scrollbars to change.
